As an experimental artist, I work with light projection and repurposed materials, such as old glass sourced from charity shops. Through my practice, I explore the intersection of landscape and everyday scenes, capturing reflections and shadows through the medium of video and transforming them into fragmented, reimagined projections.
My work is informed by a deep curiosity and a desire to challenge the viewer's perception of the world around us. I believe that the everyday can be overlooked, and that through the use of repurposed materials, we can draw attention to the value of these discarded objects.
At the core of my artistic practice is a commitment to experimentation and exploration. I am constantly pushing the boundaries of my medium, using unexpected techniques and materials to create something truly unique. Through my art, I hope to inspire others to see the world with fresh eyes and to discover new perspectives.
Ultimately, my goal is to engage the viewer on both an emotional and intellectual level, creating an experience that is both thought-provoking and immersive. Through my practice, I seek to expand the possibilities of what art can be and to explore new ways of seeing and experiencing the world.
